Match background

Neither Krasnodar nor Rennes can reach the last 16 in their debut UEFA Champions League campaigns, although there is still plenty to play for as they meet in Russia on Matchday 5. • Both teams had their faint hopes of progress from Group E extinguished last time out, each conceding in added time to lose 2-1 at home. Rennes were undone by a 91st-minute Chelsea winner while Krasnodar's third successive defeat was confirmed by a Sevilla goal five minutes into stoppage time. • That left both sides on a single point, gained in their Matchday 1 draw in France when a 56th-minute Sehrou Guirassy penalty for Rennes was cancelled out three minutes later by Krasnodar's Cristian Ramírez. That means the winners at the Stadium Krasnodar would seal third place in Group E; a draw would take it to Matchday 6. Form guide Krasnodar • Having marked their UEFA Champions League group stage debut with a first point in the competition thanks to the draw at Rennes, Krasnodar went on to lose 4-0 at home to Chelsea before being beaten away (2-3), in a game they led 2-0, and at home by Sevilla. • Krasnodar are the seventh Russian club to compete in the UEFA Champions League group stage, and the first newcomers from the country since Rostov in 2016/17. • This is only Krasnodar's seventh season in UEFA competition – they have featured every year since making their debut in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League. In 2019/20, they were eliminated by Olympiacos in the UEFA Champions League play-offs and went on to finish third in their UEFA Europa League section behind Basel and Getafe, picking up nine points from their six matches (W3 L3). • Third in the Russian Premier League for the second season in a row in 2019/20, Krasnodar had only played four European Cup matches before 2020/21. The first ended in a 1-0 home defeat by Porto in the 2019/20 third qualifying round first leg, only for them to then turn round the tie with a remarkable 3-2 victory in Portugal in which they led 3-0 at half-time. However, Olympiacos proved too strong for Murad Musaev's team in the play-offs, winning 4-0 in Greece and 2-1 in Russia. • Krasnodar had no such problems in this season's play-off, winning both legs of their tie against Greek club PAOK 2- 1 with Rémy Cabella scoring the winner in each game. • Before losing to Chelsea and Sevilla, Krasnodar had won three successive home matches in UEFA competition, although those are their only victories in the last ten games in their own stadium (D2 L5). • This is Krasnodar's sixth match against a French club. They drew 1-1 away and at home against LOSC Lille in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League group stage and were paired with Nice at the same stage of the same competition in 2016/17, when they followed a 5-2 home win with a 2-1 loss in France. Rennes • The Ligue 1 side opened their first UEFA Champions League campaign with that draw at home to Krasnodar, Guirassy scoring Rennes' first ever European Cup goal, but subsequently lost at Sevilla (0-1) and Chelsea (0-3) before elimination was confirmed by another loss to the English side last time out. • Rennes are making their European Cup debut in 2020/21 having finished third in Ligue 1 last season. • This is Rennes' third successive season playing European football, a club first. • Having reached the UEFA Europa League round of 16 in 2018/19, Julien Stéphan's side finished fourth in their section in the same competition last season, picking up four points to finish behind Celtic, CFR Cluj and Lazio. • Rennes were 2-0 winners at home to Lazio on Matchday 6 in last season's UEFA Europa League, their only win in their last 11 European matches (D2 L8). • Rennes have lost their last six European away matches; a 3-1 win against Real Betis in the 2018/19 UEFA Europa League round of 32 second leg (6-4 aggregate) was the last time they avoided defeat on their travels. • Les Rouge et Noir are the 11th Ligue 1 club to take part in the UEFA Champions League group stage and the first French debutants since Montpellier in 2012/13. • The Matchday 1 draw with Krasnodar was Rennes' first European game against a Russian club. Links and trivia • Born in Corsica, French international Rémy Cabella started his youth career at Gazélec Ajaccio before joining Montpellier in 2004 aged 14. He was part of the club's senior squad between 2009 and 2014 and has also had spells
